The device is run entirely by touch. It runs the Mac OS X, scaled down to a cell phone.

 "This is a day I've been looking forward to for two and a-half years," Jobs told the crowd at San Francisco's Moscone Center.

 Jobs says the "killer app is making calls." The iPhone will operate on the GSM protocol, but will not have third-generation broadband initially. It will sync with the Mac's Address Book application.

 Jobs played a voicemail on the phone from former Vice President Al Gore, a member of the company's board, congratulating the Apple chairman on the new device.

  I like gala and fuji apples.  And yourself?
